Season 4
Episodes
Episode 1
In this new series she's following others as they do just the same. Today she meets Pete and Sharon who are moving nearly 700 miles from Bristol to Orkney with Sharon's mum Lynne and their 80+ animals. After finding love later in the life, these two are leaving their cramped suburban semi for seven stunning acres of island countryside. Packing up their old life in Bristol is quite a feat, with everything from horses and sheep to goats and geese all making the ferry journey across the North Sea to their new home. Sharon has given up her full-time job to concentrate on their menagerie of animals while Pete is trying to get some plumbing work on the Island to tide them over. But he's kept busy getting their new smallholding safe for all the animals, including new fencing to keep their ducks safe from the island sea otters. More animals appear when Kate goes back to visit, as the arrival of a new sheepdog puppy is keeping them on their toes. Kate gets Pete straight to work and takes him and the new pup for some training with a local expert. With 15% of the world's seal population living on Orkney, Sharon finds out more about these local inhabitants and is inspired by a visit to the island's rescue centre during pupping season. Will this Bristolian trio adapt to island life way up north and find their feet in their new community? And can they cope with the weather in one of the remotest spots in the UK?
Episode 2
Kate meets a couple moving nearly 700 miles to Orkney, along with over 80 animals.

The Repair Shop
The Repair Shop is a workshop of dreams, where broken or damaged cherished family heirlooms are brought back to life.

Many of these items have incredible stories behind them and a unique place in history: from an accordion played in the Blitz by a woman who is now in her 90s, to a beautifully crafted clock made by a father who was completely blind; a Pinball machine that is currently being used as a kitchen counter, and a Davenport desk with its trademark fake drawers which fooled burglars - and their crowbar.
